If it's always the blood of more than 1 dragon, the first version is correct. If it only needs to be the blood of 1 dragon, the second version is correct.

Here are a couple of potential errors that I spotted:
Shoal the Nereid: Please to help me, will you? I am alone on this desolate dry-land and who knows what lurks in these woods.
Please to help me, will you? -> Please help me, will you?
There's also an error in Edwin's dialogue after accepting his request to kill Dynaheir.
Edwin: Of course you will, it is as expected. (I will lead them to her and she cannot hope to prevail.) I will travel with you until the deed be done. I last heard of her, she was travelling to the west of Nashkel, close to the gnoll stronghold located there.
I don't know if this qualifies as a "game text error", but in the spell description for the level 1 priest spell Bless it states that it raises attack rolls of friendly creatures by +1, but it doesn't say anything about damage rolls, which it also seems to raise by +1 (I don't remember Bless always increasing damage but I just tested it and it seems to do so). If I'm not missing something, it might be good to specify the +1 to damage too just for the sake of completeness.
The quest "Laerta and Louise" can be completed by killing either Gervisse or Voltine but in both cases you get the same journal entry - "The "bogeyman" Gervisse won't bother those girls anymore."
Unfortunately I didn't keep a note of each occurrence, but I've seen multiple strings with "stanger" for "stranger". I think one instance has already been reported in this thread, but maybe a global search of the textbase for " stanger" would find the others.

I don't know if these typos have been fixed in the beta version, but in v1.0.2014 I that's what I've got:
StringRef = 747 Stiff a hardworking girl out of her meager wage, will you? Don't look favorably upon that, they don't, and I'm well liked 'round here. Maybe you trip and "fall" a few times when you meet a stanger in an alley. What say you rethink your position?
StringRef = 9834 I'm just a stanger that's needs some directions. Relax.
StringRef = 17493 I am not so stupid as to listen to stangers in the middle of nowhere, no matter how infirm they appear to be! Off with you!
When you meet Scar for the first time, he asks "Are you the group that was involved in the fiasco at the Nashkel mines?"
That doesn't make much sense: a "fiasco" means a miserable failure, whereas your party's actions were a great success. Saying "trouble" would be better than "fiasco". Or better still, change "was involved in the fiasco" to "solved the mysterious problems".
Note: so far as I recall, the same semantic howler was in original BG1, but was never fixed.
Magreb: Thank you, cleric/mage. Rilsa and I have watched over this area for years. Now that she is at peace, I will continue our work.
I noticed when I did this part as a Dwarven Defender, the class popped up in capital letters, which looked rather silly. Don't know if this is the case all through for this class. Might be worth taking a look at.
This is what it looked like: Magreb: Thank you, DWARVEN DEFENDER. Rilsa and I have watched over this area for years. Now that she is at peace, I will continue our work.
This isn't a big deal at all, but I noticed that in the record screen there is inconsistent capitalization: "Two-handed Sword" and "Two-Handed Weapon Style".
During dual-classing process, the description of new druid class says, that they can use Daggers (small swords), clubs and staves (blunt weapon), Slings and Darts (missile weapons) and Spear (Spears). There no such thing as "small swords" category I believe (even if it exists as a weapon restrictiary category, but in this case its confuses because short swords also small swords and they are not an option); more important, there is no words about scimitars, altough they are legal druid weapon.
I found a typo in the Dragon Disciple kit description it is Written Hit Dice instead of Hit Die like others. Or is it all the other kits that are wrong by being Hit Die?
When creating a character, selecting Race as a Human you can see the description, part of it says:
"The only special ability that humans possess is that they may advance as any class. Humans are also the only class that can dual-class."
The second sentence contradicts the first: if only humans can dual-class, that is certainly a special ability! And a significant one.
Also, since humans have special traits in regards to some skills, the first sentence is really obsolete, from the time humans didn't have those in the AD&D realm.
When creating a new character, one of the help texts is:
"If you wish to import a pre-made character, then use the Import Character option to load in a pre-made Fighter, Cleric, Thief or Mage."
First of all, the button (called option in the text) is just "Import", not "Import Character". Also, the game comes with many other characters than just those which are described above in the text. They probably stem from the original game, in which only those were available.
You could just change the text to "If you wish to import a pre-made character, then use the Import button to load one in." Or my own suggestion: "If you wish to import a pre-made character, then use the Import button, which allows you to select one of the different characters which have already been created for you."
Or something. Decide for yourself which is the best .

Hope this helps.
Also, in regards to Shoal the Nereid saying "please to help me", I think she was meant to say that since that is what her voiced line is.
